Button Boutique #5
Hello, Lisa E. here! I have
another addition of my DeNami
Design Button Boutique feature to share with you today. June will be
here before you know it bringing Father's Day along with it. Now normally your
first thought for a masculine project wouldn't include a selection of pretty
little buttons. But I think the use of buttons paired with some masculine
DeNami stamps worked out pretty well.
I've taken these splendid
DeNami products and turned them into this sweet little
project.
Isn't this fun! The men in my
family love to fish. So the fishing
chickie was a good jumping off point. Grant it they don't fish from a
sail boat, but I thought it would be cuter than a fishing
boat!
I folded my boat from a
pattern found on line then added the teeny
swiss dot stamp and blue
stripes Washi tape to decorate it. I created my own pattern for the
sail. It was cut out, inked on the edges, adorned with buttons (front &
back) for the mast and stamped with a sentiment.
My anchor
was stamped, punched then added with foam tape to the boat. And finally two
fishing chickies were added.
To transform this idea into a
card I simply made a flat boat!
I kept everything the same here in my design. To give the boat a more finished appearance, all of the edges were scored and turned under. I even gave the sails some dimension by carefully pulling the paper between my fingers to give it the curve.
I think these turned out to be super Father's Day projects even with those pretty little buttons!
Head over to, my blog, My Paper Tales, and leave a comment for a chance to win a Thoughtful Greetings stamp set!
Thanks for stopping into my Button Boutique today!
